A Goy Guide to the
LAW OF MOSES

 
     
 


What is a Goy?
That is the Yiddish word for a non-Jew.
I am a Goy, but I was raised with a respect for the Law of Moses and those who adhere to it. Although I'm Christian, I revere and respect the Law of Moses as being the Law the Almighty gave to His people from Mount Sinai. Through the years I have discovered that through understanding the Law and the People of the Law I become better acquainted with my own religion, for it was from this foundation the Christian church was built.

What Is my Goal?

It is not my goal to explain modern Judaism. If that's what you want then please go find a good Rabbi! My goal is to give a simple explanation of  the Law of Moses as contained in the Holy Scriptures to help others understand the great religious and social foundation which came from the Almighty through Moses.

If anyone feels I am teaching or presenting anything wrong, please write and tell me so I can do this all correctly.

I will use the King James Version of the Holy Bible for all quotations
unless specified otherwise.

For more information on the Law of Moses and Judaism in general, I recommend the following websites:
